Holy Hurricane Batman !!!

**sctx** · 06-27-2007

storms last nite just west of Austin dumped 17 inches or rain in less than 6 hours!!!!.....roadways gone, San gabriel River is over the HWY 183 river bridge, boulders and trees washed onto the roads........with 4 flood gates open on Lake Travis, they say it will still rise 12 inches per hour this morning....if this rain moves a little further East, the Colorado floodplain will be an ocean tomorrow......could be very bad here, hopefully loss of life is minimal

That is an amazing amount of water! I just looked at the radar, it is still raining pretty intense

oh crap! That's not a great situation.

We had a 13"er a couple of years ago, dams upstream started collapsing - the damage was incredible.

This being NJ, of course someone had to file a suit

Be safe.

OH Gawd Scott, stay safe. This is bad. I think enough lives have been takin' this year due to these storms. Its just horrible. Bring the dogs in

Jeez ... I live in Boston and, hating snow, love to complain about the weather. But I have never experienced anything like that. WOW!

On the bright side ... your internet service is still up and we are all still here ...

Hot and humid here in Baltimore today- Code Red, heat index of 100 degrees.
We could really use some rain.

get those tubes inflated and stay safe Scott... Our morning weather briefer told us that Texas is expecting another 12-15" today!

Banzoomba · 06-27-2007

Flash · 06-27-2007

I think all of the prayers and positive thoughts for lots of rain for this years Regatta (especially after last years lack of rain) was too much!

Congrats on stepping over to "the other side" Scott!
